You know what they say when it comes to Marathon Monday. Those who can’t run, crawl – bar crawl, that is. In just two weeks, our city will be back on its feet, running, cheering and (for many) imbibing on a few celebratory drinks.

And if you’re looking to partake in Marathon Monday celebrations early, we recommend signing up for The Froston Marathon. Brought to you by Faneuil Hall’s own Frost Ice Bar, the bar crawl event takes place Saturday, April 19 from noon to 10 p.m. – leaving you plenty of time to recover before April 21.

Participants will barhop through Central Wharf, Sterling’s, The Black Rose, Mija, Warehouse Bar & Grille, Battery Park, Coogans, Stadium, and more. But while the pub crawling is certainly fun, the best part about the event is that all proceeds go directly to The One Fund to help those most affected by last year’s Marathon bombings.

A good cause and a good time, The Froston Marathon will also be hosting a special post Marathon Monday “Ice Bath” event on the night of April 21. All it takes is a $10 donation to The One Fund to receive free admission to Frost Ice Bar as well as entrance to other post-Marathon parties happening around town.

There will also be specialty cocktails, giveaways and plenty of prizes available at The Froston Marathon. You won’t need your sneakers but you will need one of these tickets – so buy yours before they sell out!
